Vaccination Rules.

The merits of vaccination have been
considered since 1883 by q German
commission--three members of which
were Observation-Disclosures these
are among the conclusions which have
at length been announced: The period
during which vaccination protects
against smallpox varies greatly, but
as rule all persons should be vac.
cinated every ten years; two we'll
marked vesicles are necessary to insure
successful protection; animal vaccine is
preferable; no special disease OF in
creasing death rate can be traced to
the practice of vaccination; the opera
ton should not be performed during
epiden,ics Of scarlet fever, measles,
diphtheria, whooping, cough. typhus or
erysipeIas; ln1anB should not be vac
cinated until three months old; and
the greatest care in cleaning and disin-
fecting instruments should be observed

KEEPING GOOD STOCK.
Why It Does Not Pay to Raise Inferio
Grades of Animals.

Why It Does Not Pay to Raise inferior
Grades OF Animals.
For some time past there has been
general complaint that times are hard,
money scarce, and, in consequence,
farmers profits small. To certain
extent there is hardly any question but
that this is so. Some of the causes are
beyond our reach, we are not able to
control them; but others we are, if we
are willing to put forth the proper
effort.
Where mixed farming is followed,
and the greater portion of what is
raised upon the farm is fed to stock, SO
that all the manure possible can be
made, saved and applied, in order to
realize the largest amount of profits
possible, it is necessary to secure the
largest gain at the smallest expense.
One of the first essentials necessary to
secure this is to have good stock. The
farmer who is obliged to work and
manage SO as to secure the largest pos
sible profits. can not afford to feed
what he raises upon the farm to any
thing else but good stock. because it is
only with good stock that he can Sc
cure the largest gain.
It is true good stock costs little
more than scrubs, but they make us
more money, and yon can make more
money with less number, and less
feed will be required. ] think / am
safe in saying that many farmers raise
and feed stock that, leaving out the
expense of feeding and care, does not
pay the farmers profit. In fact, he
does not receive a fair price for what
he has fed out With ordinary care
the manure should be worth the
trouble Of feeding and caring for the
animals. But too often the man who
will insist upon keeping the scrub
stock, will also fail to take the proper
means to make. save and apply all the
manure possible, SO that to many the
failure to keep good stock really im-
plies two losses-a failure to secure
the largest gain from the feed, and
also the value of the manure.
To this may further be added the
care. The man who will fail in the
other two respects will nearly always
fail to give such care and attention in
feeding and sheltering that is necessa-
ry to secure the best results. The man
who keeps good stock realizes the fact
that the greatest gain can only be Sc
cured by good feed and good care.
Thus the keeping of the one implies
the other.
When the profits at best are small, it
OF course requires but a small amount
of neglect to take off all the profits.
We are feeding the grain and hay and
running the risk with no profit. One
may be surer Of profit with good stock
and good care, and not only profit,
but an increased one, than where only
scrubs arc kept. Form, Field and

remarkable Shower Of Qua,ls.

Talking Of quails, said man from
Nevada few years ago, we had most
remarkable shower Of quails in Virginia
City. It occurred about four O. clock in the
fall of the year. Where the quail came
from no one could imagine, as they were
Of the large mountain variety and perfect
beauties The fall of birds extended over
three-quarters of mile of ground. Peo-
pie caught them by putting their hats
over them or by simply picking them up.
Every body had quail. About one hun.
bred were caught alive and kept in cages
and pens in various parts OF the town.
The most probable solution OF the phe.
nomenon was that the birds had collected
at some points in the Sierras for the pur-
pose of migrating to the southwark, but
had either mistaken their course or had
been blown out of it, and so few on and
on till they were obliged to come to the
ground through exhaustion.

FERTILITY OF SOIL.
The InexhaustIbie9supply of the Minera
Constituents of Vegetation.


The InexhaustIbie9supply of the Mineral
Constituents of Vegetation.
1t is to be remembered that soil is
made of dissolved rock. And this rock
is found to contain all the mineral ele-
ments required by vegetation, the diff
ference in the natural fertility of soils
being the difference of the rock of
which the soil is formed. This being
so, it is evident that the earth will con-
tlnue to furnish the mineral constitu-
ents of vegetation while soil or rock
remains.
The other ingredients of vegetation,
oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen, arc
furnished, the two first from air and
water, the other, nitrogen, in way
that seems at present to be not fully
understood. 1t is generally agreed
that plants do not receive their nitro
gen directly from the air. therefore
indirectly from air as a primary source,
in what way we may not fully under
stand.
Air is composed of oxygen and nitro
gen, the nitrogen in greatest proper
ton. 1t is known that oxygen is read
lily communicated to other substances,
and is largely drawn upon in combus-
ton. AS the composition of the air
is never known to vary, and as
large quantities of nitrogen are con-
tinually being discharged into the air,
it is evedint that nitrogen must also be
communicated, the surplus quantities
being constantly thrown off to unite
with other substances. With what
substances nitrogen is thus combined
may be inferred from observation. The
formation of nitrate of potash and MI
trate of soda are familiar examples. 1t
is also known that saltpetre is formed
artifi cially by mixing ingredients to at
tract the nitrogen from the atmos-
phere. These facts 90 to show that
the supply of nitrogen required by cul-
tivation is assured, requiring only the
hand of man to supply the deficiency
that the growing of crops has created.
And though a deficiency of nearly all
the elements of nutrition will be oc-
curing, it is encouraging to know
that by the intelligence and industry
it may always be supplied, and the
earth rendered perennial in the pro-
duction of food for man.
The provisions of nature in every di-
rection are evidently such, that with
reasonable care and seasonable labor,
mankind can enjoy her fruits to the
full.-MaSsachusetts Plooonan.

WHITEHEAD ToRPEDoES.
Adopted by Nearly Every Naval Power IN
Europe and America

Adopted by Nearly Every Naval Power in
Europe and America,
The torpedo that has been adopted
by nearly every naval power in Europe
is known as the Whitehead, and be-
longs to what may be des ignated as
the "projectile class" that is, having
been started on Its course toward the
enemy, no control Of it is retained by
the operator Most of the various
types of this class are wholly SUBJ
merged when operated against any
enemy, and are generally arranged to
run at given depth below the sur
face, varying from five to fifteen feet.
Naturally, one of the main objects
of inventors of torpedoes, as well as OF
those engaged in other fields OF inven-
ton, is financial profit. The White
head is the only torpedo that
has yet proved success in this
respect. 1t is built of thin sheets
of steel. is cigar shaped but without the
attached float and is made in three
sizes, the largest being 10 feet long by
Is inches diameter, and the smallest 9
feet long by II inches diameter. The
motive power is compressed air, car
ried at pressure of about seventy
atmospheres, in a cylindrical reservoir
within the torpedo. The speed attained
is about % miles per hourfor distance
of 45O yards. The torpedo is divided in
to three sections forward, middle
and "rear''-containing, respectively.
the charge of 10 to SO pounds of gun
cotton; the adjusting mechanism,
wherein lies she secret of the inventor,
and by which the hydrostatic pressure
of the surrounding water is
made to regulate the depth Of
immersion; and the air engi mes
and steering machinery. 1t is designed
to be carried on board a very swift
torpedo boat, capable of overtahng
the fastest iron-clad, and, when within
effective range, to be discharged from
the boat with the steering rudder of the
torpedo set in such a position as to di-
rect it's center toward the enemy. The
first motion, or discharge, is effect
ed through a guide tube IN the bow OF
the boat, either above or below the sur
face of the water, usually by means OF
avery small charge of powder, after
which, upon reaching the water, the
torpedo is propelled by its own ex-
gines. The explosion may be made to
take place either upon impact with the
enemy or after the torpedo has run a
given distance. -Scribner' Magazine

+ha ubo,o south facade Of the theater

the whole south facade OF tne theaIeH
date from the same year. This STAIR
case, with its marble caryatides by
Carrier Belleuse, its rich iron balu-
strade, it's fine architectural lines, de-
serves nothing but praise. Unfortun-
ately it leads only to a lobby, and one
must turn to the left to enter the pub
lie foyer or crush-room. This foyer
looks like rich and artistic salon,
with its profusion of delicate gliding,
its pilasters, its mirrors. its
graceful ornamentation, and fine
decorative paintings. Seated COM
fortably in an armchair or on sofa,
one can contemplate at ones ease
rare collection of masterpieces OF
French sculpture of the eighteenth
century placed around the room. In
the midst of mass Of verdure and
flowers Voltaire occupies the place OF
honor at one end, not as dramatic
author, not as one of the grand ances-
tors of the house, but because his statue
is the finest that Houdon eyer made.
At the other end of the room, on each
side of the monumental chimney
piece, are busts of Moliere and Cor
nellie, and in front of each Of the SIX
teen fiuted pilasters that divide the
walls into panels stands on its pedestal
marble bust of some celebrated au-
thor, by Houdon, Cat1ieri, Pajou, Boizot
or others-an admirable series, which is
continued along the adjoining gallery,
at the end of which we admire Clesin-
gers seated statue of George Sand.
The foyer and the gallery of busts con-
stitute for the public the museum of
the Coincide Franchise But these
two rooms contain only very small
part of the artistic treasures Of the
house. In every passage, in every
room, on every stairway, on every
wall, there are busts, pictures, engrav-
ings, historical souvenirs, which the
public does not see. The artists
green-room, the directors cabinet in
particular, are most interesting. but,
of course, unless you have friends at
court you can not enter these rooms.
Happily, as far, at least, as the sculpt-
ure is concerned, the greater part OF
the masterpieces are placed permanent
ly within the public view, in the foyer
and the passages.
At the present day the riches of the
Comedie are so abundant that for want
Of room even masterpieces have be left
in dark corners, unseen and almost for
gotten. At the Coincide Franchise, in
the actors greenroom, and in the pub
lie foyer, almost all the master portrait
lists of the eighteenth century, sculpt'
ors and painters alike, may be studied
in their best work. The sculpture il
particularly admirable. The statues
and busts of the museum Of the Come

treasures of the museums Of Italy, anC
the conclusion will be that the sculp
